인도네시아의 유도 마고노 해군참모총장이 인도네시아 언론 KOMPAS에 프랑스의 나발그룹이 제안한 스콜펜급 잠수함이 인도네시아 수역에서의 작전 요구사항을 만족시키며 인도네시아 국방부의 스콜펜급 조달 계획에 동의한다고 밝혔다고 합니다. 인도네시아 해군은 총톤수 1,300톤 이상의 잠수함을 원했지만 인도네시아 해군과 국방부 모두 스콜펜급이 요구사항을 만족시킨다는 사실을 확신한다고 합니다. 이 발표는 한국 해군 참모총장의 방문 직후 이뤄졌습니다.

지난 2월 초 나발그룹과 인도네시아 PT Pal 조선소 사이에 스콜펜급 2척 구입과 지원, 무장 및 훈련 관련 MOU가 체결됐었습니다. 이번 해참총장의 발표는 국방부의 구매계획에 동의한다는 뜻인 듯 하네요. 

Scorpene Submarine Meets Indonesia Navy Requirements - Naval News

Admiral Yudho Margono, Chief of Staff of the Indonesian Navy (TNI AL), stated to local media KOMPAS that the Scorpene submarines proposed by French shipbuilder Naval Group met the requirements to operate in Indonesian waters, and thus the Indonesian Navy has agreed to the Indonesia MoD’s plan to procure the submarines.

The admiral also indicated that the Indonesian Navy initially desired to procure submarines with a gross tonnage of more than 1,300 gross tons (GT). Meanwhile, the Indonesian Navy and the Ministry of Defense have determined that the Scorpene meets the required standards.

The statements were made shortly after a high level visit of the Republic of Korea Navy’s CNO who was supporting a second batch submarines contract from South Korean shipbuilder Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME). Contacted by Naval News, a Naval Group spokesperson said he had no comments to make about the media reports.

Indonesian shipbuilder PT PAL issued in early February a request for information (RFI) “to propose to provide Ship Lift – Design & Build Scheme solution(s)”. The documentation contained the aim of this ship lift will be to support PT PAL’s future submarine production activities.

Two weeks later, Naval Group and PT Pal signed a Memorandum of Understanding seeking to leverage the capabilities of both partners to meet the growing requirements of the Indonesian Navy. The signing came a visit by Naval Group’s CEO to the local shipyard PT PAL Indonesia.

The MoU covers the purchase of two Scorpene-type submarines along with support, weapons, and training.

About Scorpene type submarine

Scorpène® is a conventional submarine designed by the Naval Group for the export market. It demonstrates both the Naval Group’s ability to deliver best-in-class submarines and to conduct successful transfers of technology. Today 14 Scorpène® submarines are in operational service or being built, for the Chilean Navy (2 units), the Malaysian Navy (2 units), the Indian Navy (6 units) and the Brazilian Navy (4 units).

The Scorpène® design is adapted to fit each navy’s specific requirements. Thus, the Brazilian Scorpène® will be slightly longer to carry a larger crew, almost double the patrol range, and be able to cover greater distances.

Scorpène® is ideally suited for action and operational effectiveness. Robust and enduring, it’s an ocean-going submarine also designed for shallow waters operations. Multipurpose, it fulfills the entire scope of missions such as anti-surface and anti-submarine warfare, special operations, offensive minelaying, and intelligence gathering. Integrating improvements from the French Barracuda-Class fast-attack submarine, Scorpène® has cutting-edge capabilities.

인도네시아에서 만드는 것인가요? "support PT PAL’s future submarine production activities"가 정확히 무엇인지 의미가 확실하지 않네요.
